I never aspired to be up front. When I was a kid, I didn't ever look in the mirror with a hairbrush going, Hey, I'm Elvis!

More quotes by Vince Gill
It would be fun to go back and see where all my songs stopped, because I think I'd have every number in the top 100. It never ceases to amaze me. It still hurts when one doesn't work, because you put your heart and soul into it.
Vince Gill
When you lose people that are close to you it brings everything into focus, and the rest kind of gets put on the back burner.
Vince Gill
I formally proposed. I'm a good Southern gentleman.
Vince Gill
I am responsible for me. I can kind of take care of what I need to do and should do what I like to do.
Vince Gill
I've always been more drawn to being normal than being famous.
Vince Gill
It's so much more interesting when you're human. I hate making mistakes, but I'm not afraid of 'em.
Vince Gill
Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.
Vince Gill
With The Key, it was, I had gone through a divorce and losing my father, and just kinda really reminiscing about how much I loved the traditional side of country music, so I made a record that was really traditional from start to finish.
Vince Gill
I had just lost my dad and I remembered all the songs we used to go and hear at concerts, and the records around the house and sometimes we'd play together.
Vince Gill
My mom said, What I want is a happy kid, not a rich kid. That's what I root for. She saw how much joy I got from playing music, and those years were leaner than lean!
Vince Gill
Whether I'm making my own record, or playing a guitar part, I want what I do to have an impact.
Vince Gill
It is not fun singing about losing somebody like that, but at the same time it was easy to write because the memories were so real and vivid and so much a part of who I am.
Vince Gill
You learn a whole lot more about a person if they have bad breaks and all those kind of things.
Vince Gill
I would love to hear someone write a song like 'He Stopped Loving Her Today' rather than 'You're hot. I'm hot. We're in a truck.' It's just mind-numbing to me.
Vince Gill
Yes, the companionship is amazing. You know, you can get that physical attraction that happens is great, but then there's an awful lot of time and the rest of the day that you have to fill.
Vince Gill
Through music you learn not to care about the color of someone's skin.
Vince Gill
When I look back, I don't remember the best of the best. I don't remember arena shows with 20,000 people. I remember funky little bar gigs where nobody shows up. The weirdest of the weird are what you retain.
Vince Gill
Everything I've done feels like I'm just as much a part of it as if I was the producer. It's still the same job: all of us together figuring out the common good for a song. That's the only thing that matters. It's not like, I'm the boss, and I'm gonna tell you what to play.
Vince Gill
The real amazing thing about all of this is I think I've maintained the mentality of a musician throughout it all, which I'm proudest of. And I'm still playing on people's records and singing on people's records.
Vince Gill
It is not that I don't like contemporary country music because I do. I love it. I have recorded a lot and have had great success recording records that have not been very traditional country records.
